Principle Data

Alternator

The Leroy Somer LSA alternators are designed for heavy-duty continuous applications, with marine winding protection and Leroy Somer’s AREP excitation system.

• AREP Excitation for superior motor starting capabilities
• Marine grade (relative humidity >95%) protection
• External multi-voltage selector switch (4-position)
• 4 pole brushless design with single bearing, Class H insulation and IP23 rating
• Voltage regulation +/- 0.25%
• Full Load acceptance of prime power rating

The AREP system uses 2 independent auxiliary windings located in the main stator to send supply voltage to the AVR:

• The voltage delivered by the first auxiliary winding H1 is proportional to the alternator output voltage (shunt characteristic).
• The voltage delivered by the second auxiliary winding H3 is proportional to the current drawn by the alternator and is a function of the applied load (compound characteristic – booster effect).
• The resulting phase-to-phase voltage supplies power to the AVR.

This power supply to the AVR power circuit is independent of the voltage sensing measured on the alternator output terminals. Therefore, the excitation current delivered by the AVR to the alternator exciter is independent of any voltage distortions (harmonics) due to the load. The AREP system gives the alternator a high overload capacity (load impact or starting electric motors) and a short-circuit capability (300% – 10 s) to provide discriminating protection: the alternator with AREP excitation is shorter than the one with PMG excitation. It is particularly suitable for demanding applications.

When used at altitude and high ambient conditions the engine and alternator will de-rate as per the chart below.

Controller – Paralleling Option

The QAS 150 and QAS 200 JD T4F are also available as an option with a Qc4004 controller and Qd0701 capacitive touchscreen display. This is a fully diagnostic ECU controller with a large 7” diagonal (800 x 480 pixel) touchscreen display that is intuitive and easy to operate with all functions conveniently at your fingertips. The controller also manages the engine ECU operating system and several safety warnings and shutdowns on various parameters. Additionally, our Power Management System (PMS) enables the optimization of fuel consumption and expands the generator lifetime. PMS manages the number of generators running in parallel with load demand, starting and stopping units in line with increases or decreases in load. This ensures the demand for each generator remains at a level that optimizes fuel consumption. This also eliminates the need for generators to run with low load levels, which can cause engine damage and shorten the life expectancy of the equipment.

Qc4004 Controller Benefits:

Modular Plant Capacity

• The Qc4004 controller allows up to 32 generators to be coupled in parallel to fit the power requirement of any application.

Remote communication capability

• The Qc4004 supports serial communication protocols including Modbus (RS-485, USB, and TCP/IP) and Profibus allowing you to supervise and control your genset/plant remotely.

User-friendly rental interface

• Rental companies will benefit from the standardized user interfaces. The controller has been designed with ease of operation in mind, and rental companies can easily set and lock parameters to ensure full protection of their equipment.

Available Modes:

• Island mode – Power plant with synchronizing generators or a stand-alone generator. Also applicable in critical power plants.
• Automatic Mains Failure – Critical power/emergency standby plants, black start generator.
• Fixed power – Power plant with fixed kW set point (including building load).
• Peak shaving – Power plant where generator supplies peak load demand paralleled to the mains.
• Load takeover – Plant mode where the load is moved from mains to the generator, for example, peak demand periods or periods with the risk of power outages.
• Mains power export – Power plant with fixed kW set point (excluding building load).
• Remote maintenance – Used when the generator must supply the load while a distribution transformer is disconnected for service. All modes are configurable, and it is possible to change the plant mode on the fly both in single and in power management applications.

Engine John Deere

• JD Tier 4 Final, turbo-charged, intercooler, six-cylinder, liquid-cooled diesel engine provides ample power to operate the generator continuously at full load.
• Meets all US EPA, CARB and Environment Canada exhaust legislations with Tier 4 Final compliance.
